Abstract: A method and system of operating a microscopy system are disclosed. A first image first image of a sample acquired using a first imaging configuration is received. A second image is developed from the first image, wherein the second image is associated with a second imaging configuration. A sequence of image processing steps is applied to the first image to develop a first classification of first objects represented in the first image and to the second image to develop a second classification of second objects represented in the second image. A score associated with the second imaging configuration is developed that represents a difference between the first classification and the second classification. The image acquisition time or component requirements of operating the microscopy system is less when operated using the second imaging configuration than when operated using the first imaging configuration.

Abstract: A high content imaging system and a method of operating the high content imaging system are disclosed. A microscope has a first objective lens and a second objective lens, and an objective lens database has first and second transformation values associated with the first and the second objective lenses, respectively. A microscope controller operates the microscope with the first objective lens to develop first values of acquisition parameters. A configuration module automatically determines second values of the acquisition parameters using the first values of the acquisition parameters, first transformation values associated with the first objective lens, and second transformation values associated with the second objective lens. The microscope controller operates the microscope using the second objective lens and the second values of the acquisition parameters.
